Do begin with, I had to retrieve this clock from the depths of my car, thereby saving it from slowly being swallowed by the abyss that we all know to exist in the the backseat. Saving it with the plans of destroying it myself-- that's chrono-sadism for ya.


So here's the clock, plugged in and functional, although displaying the wrong time:




This was my alarm clock through my 3 1/2 years of college. Here's my clock meeting another old college friend of mine, my trusty hammer/screwdriver combo.




The handle of the hammer twists off to reveal a screwdriver with a few interchangeable heads.





So, I set to work on the little screws on the bottom of the clock. After getting them out, the clock split neatly into two plastic shell pieces, although some shattered and unidentifiable plastic bits came out as well. Don't know how that happened before I'd even gotten to the super-destructive phase.





Which wire do you snip, the red one, or the white one? I think I'll cut them both.





Thus far, the destruction had been a little too clean and emotionless, so I took a hammer to it. I tried uploading the video here, but it didn't work, so I'm going to try to stick it on YouTube and re-edit this to post a link.


In any case, here's the final level of clock-destruction:





Success.
